           Summary: Copy pasting from OpenOffice/LibreOffice to

           Product: Writer
           Version: 4.1.2

                OS: Windows Vista

Description:
Copy pasting from OpenOffice/LibreOffice with default formatting, to
Thunderbird Mail Composer will ruin the formatting in the Thunderbird Mail
Composer. This happens even if the user has unchecked the option "Use Paragraph
format instead of Body Text by default" from Thunderird.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Write text in OpenOffice or Libreoffice with default formatting (line
spacing is 1). Select this text and press CTRL+C.
2. Open Thunderbird and go to Preferences -> Composition. From here uncheck the
box "Use Paragraph format instead of Body Text by default". Press close.
3. Open Thunderbird and press the Write button to open a new window to write an
email.
4. Paste the text you copied from OpenOffice/Libreoffice to this "Write window"
of Thunderbird.

Actual Results:  
The formatting of the pasted text is now ruined, because it is paragraph
formatted (it should not be). Also if I select all of the text, and change from
"Paragraph" to "Body Text", it does not change the formatting the way it should
be. 

Expected Results:
By pasting text from OpenOffice/LibreOffice to Thunderbird, the formatting
should stay the same, just like it was in the original OpenOffice/LibreOffice
file. (And not change into paragraph formatting.)

Reproducible: Always
